Watch: Gaurav Khanna visits Siddhivinayak temple ahead of Khatron Ke Khiladi 15

Gaurav Khanna, winner of Bigg Boss 19, visited Mumbai’s Siddhivinayak Temple before beginning his journey on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15. Photos and videos of the actor seeking blessings at the temple surfaced on social media, and he was joined by his parents during the visit.

The visit comes as Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 is set to go on floors soon, with buzz around the new season already building. A few days ago, several celebrities sparked curiosity after sharing cryptic ‘K’ pose posts on social media, and the official contestant line-up has now been revealed.

Temple visit before the show

Khanna also briefly interacted with the media gathered outside the temple premises. Speaking about his visit, he said that since he was going to a show full of challenges, he wanted to seek the blessings of Vighnaharta. He added that his parents were also there with him, and that he makes it a point to visit the temple before every show, while also going there even otherwise.

“Jab vighna vale show mein jaa raha hoon toh vighnaharta ke darshan oh karne padte hai. Mummy papa bhi aaye hue the toh unke saath bhi mujhe darshan karne the. Harr show mein jaane se pehle main zaroor aata hoon yaha. Lekin ye show nahi hota tab bhi main aata yaha (When I’m going to a show full of challenges, I have to seek blessings from Vighnaharta. My parents were also here, so I wanted to take their blessings along with them. I make it a point to come here before every show, but even otherwise, I visit the temple).”

When paparazzi asked him if he aimed to bring home the winner’s trophy of Khatron Ke Khiladi 15, Khanna replied with a smile, “I don’t know, whatever Bappa wishes will happen.”
